Something like a new enemy coming to disturb Briefs Family Trip or whatever? lol

Anyway... It is confirmed that this series will retcon Battle Of Gods and exclude JSAT? Since it's only 6 months after the defeat of Kid Boo, and JSAT was 2 years after and BoG 4 years?
Seriously, it seems like nobody has ever considered the possibility that this series set in a ten year gap might, on occasion, time skip...like Dragon Ball had done many times before this. We've had no confirmation that BoG stuff will start right away six months after Buu.
Yeah I am pretty convinced the 6 months later is only for the post battle aftermath that Toriyama talked about I am sure we will get to the proper time place of BoG.

-Vegeta being a cool dad
-Goku finally doing something dad like
that's awesome, I hope episode 3 is Gohan and Videl doing something couple like.

I wonder if Piccolo will get an episode/part of an episode about him and what he does. It'd be funny to watch him go down to earth to go buy tons water for him and Dende then getting stuck in line because he forgot his wallet :lol:

Buy water? I don't think that's likely. Remember Master Roshi and Nam?

Sometimes I wonder what Piccolo's daily life is like...

In that very moment, she knows. She fucking knows. As she handles me the nugget pieces she previously cooked for me, she leaves my room with these words: "Persona 5 is the true savior of the JRPG".

They will make a Pan.

agreed, I'd like to think he does more than sit and mediate all day long. In my headcanon for piccolo, he loves mini-golf and gardening

He's green, so he has to do green things, right? RIGHT?
Your comment would be considered racist in the Dragon World :lol:

One line from DBZ I think about pretty often is when Majin Vegeta is explaining to Goku why he let himself succumb to Babidi's mind control, and he says something along the lines of "... I awoke one day to find out that I had settled down, formed a family. I even grew quite fond of them." Every time I hear, or think about that line, it always makes me sort of wonder what sort of family activities Vegeta had done with Bulma and Trunks behind the scenes that caused this attachment. I've always wanted to kind of see how solely that family operates during times of peace. We see so much of Goku/Gohan/Goten/Chi-chi during times of peace palling around, and having fun out in the woods, always made me wonder about the Briefs family at Capsule Corp.

These are thoughts and curiosities I've had for maybe the last 10 or 15 years as a fan of this whole franchise, so hell, even we don't see Vegeta enjoying himself 100% of the time, I'm so incredibly happy to hear we'll get something resembling this during DBS Ep. 2 at least, and my excitement for what the rest of the series may bring has been incredibly furthered. :thumbup:

The first episode is getting closer and closer, and most people here, me included, are more excited for the second one. :lol:

Episode 2
Vegeta and his family go out but he cant stop thinking of Kakarot. Fangirls heads around the world explode.

I guess Beerus storyline will occur parallel to this Peace Time short arc until they came across.

Since BOG is going to made into mini arc and retold in Super, do you think that one of the changes made in the retelling of BOG would be to have Krillin and #18 wedding as one of the main plot points? I mean, it was the originally meant to be the main scenario that was going to take place in BOG, until the idea got scrapped in favor of Bulma's birthday party. And out of all the weddings in Dragon Ball, I really want to see that one happen the most, because it would mean that #17 could return again. And God knows how much of a reappearance that guy is due for.

According to the Daizenshu/Chozenshu timeline (which is a questionable factor with all Toriyama's retcons), Kuririn and 18 were married in the 7 year gap before they had Marron.

Yeah... but maybe he trains there because he doesn't know a planet with more gravity?
